Just Acquainted With The Deceased

Hello Everyone: Today was a pretty chill and chilly start to the week. Let's just say I finally had to turn on the radiator. I followed up on the community college teacher training program today and, so far, it looks good but I have questions. To get the answers I emailed someone connected to the program. I definitely think this is something for me. As for my chances for a job once I complete the program,the best I can hope for is adjunct professor. I come in teach a couple of classes and leave. At best, full time professor. I think I would have to work my up to that. A quick look at salaries tells me I can make a living as a part time professor. I first want my questions answered before I commit to the program. As far as what community college offers classes in art and architecture history goes, my home state and home town have plenty campuses, so I'm not too worried. In other news, Sis texted me Saturday night to say that the BIL's dad passed away. I remember him as a kind person who loved his family. The funeral is tomorrow and I told Sis that I'd come to pay my respects. It's the least I can do. Interesting thing about Sis' in-laws, they live(d) in Florida but talked about moving to my home town. I remember mum vaguely mentioning this to me, a long time ago. The reason I bring it up is that I thought the funeral would be in Florida or Ohio, where they're from but, no, it's here. I'm not going to worry about it because I wasn't part of the decision making process. How do I feel about going to the funeral? Fine, so far. I mean I'm having any trigger issues or anything like that. Losing mum a year and something ago was hard but not unexpected or traumatic. Sis' FIL had been ill for sometime and we weren't close. I was just acquainted with him through Sis and BIL. Anyway, it should be a nice and dignified service, as befitting the person.
